Ever since I started my healing work, I have repeatedly helped clients with chronic anaemia and low iron issues!
My first clients was South American lady in her late 40s who ate meat in every meal and had 6+ iron infusions ion past 3 years!
She came to me fora recurring rash that was not responding to any antibiotics or steroids, but as I always work from root cause rather than bandaid approach, I was clearly shown her body had grown "allergic"" to iron infusions, iron supplements and all intervention to add iron to her body!
My question was why had no one looked at WHY her body was not absorbing, retaining and utilising iron from food she ate and supplements she took since she was a teenager!
She was tired since she was in her teens! All women in her family were anaemic as far as she knew including her grandmothers on both sides! She always had iron supplements as far back as she recalled!
All this Iron bombardment were harming her internal organs and blocking her crucial bodily functions-especially the concentrated infusion of this heavy metal in her blood!
I cleared that and in next session we healed and repaired her digestive organs, trauma and other issues that affected her iron absorption!
Within a week her menopausal symptoms disappeared, her rash cleared and she no longer had low iron levels!
This was almost 4 years ago!
I have seen this and helped many clients since whose body is suffering, cringing, crying when heavy concentrated nutrients/metals are pushed into it!
People think its OK to keep taking supplements or infusions, eating things that are not good for them or their bodies rather than actually looking at why body is sabotaging itself by not doing what its designed to do! Extracting, storing, synthesising and utilising that raw material from food consumed!
I look at that and resolve my clients issue instead of making them dependent on anything that leads to more harm than good!
Today this is what a client sent me to confirm what I picked up with that first client and many ever since! I listen to clients bodies, not what ever changing science or research says and OUR BODIES DO NOT LIE!
"Unveiling the Hidden Dangers of Iron Infusions: The Urgent Call for Awareness
Author: Jess Jamieson
A group of women in Australia are collectively on a mission to help raise awareness to others of the dangers of iron infusions, after suffering for months to years with chronic hypophosphatemia, which has left them with long-term disabilities.
When you think of iron infusions, you think of vitality and a quick fix, but not too many of those administering infusions disclose, or are educated on, the hidden dangers of the iron infusion itself. Up to 92% of people can develop low phosphorus from iron infusions, which can lead to months of debilitating issues and temporary disability.
Iron infusion therapy is used to treat iron deficiency which is not responding to the first-line oral iron therapy. However, studies show it can also cause severe renal wasting of phosphate resulting in severe hypophosphatemia in some patients.
Despite the growing number of case reports, this side effect is not well-known to healthcare professionals. The product labeling information sheet does mention that hypophosphatemia can be a side effect, but also says that this side effect is usually transient and asymptomatic.
There is a growing number of people who develop severe, symptomatic, and prolonged hypophosphatemia after an intravenous iron infusion for severe iron deficiency.
The symptoms of hypophosphatemia depend on its severity. Some people with mild hypophosphatemia may have generalized mild to moderate muscle weakness or body aches/pains.
Severe hypophosphatemia can cause muscle pain and bone pain which can be mistaken for iron flu, muscular weakness, an altered mental state such as experiencing confusion or irritability, numbness, or reflexive weakness, difficulty breathing, or shortness of breath, and seizures.
Severe hypophosphatemia can also result in coma and death if not treated. If you’re experiencing symptoms of severe hypophosphatemia, it is recommended to get to the nearest hospital as soon as possible and have your fasting serum phosphate levels checked.
Going forward:
- Clinicians prescribing iron infusions should be aware of the common side effect of hypophosphatemia, which could be mild, moderate, or severe.
- Patients receiving iron infusion should be educated concerning this potential side effect.
- Pre-existing vitamin D deficiency, low calcium levels, low phosphate levels, or raised parathyroid hormone levels may be risk factors, and these should be tested, evaluated, and corrected before administering intravenous iron.
- Patients may require phosphate and active vitamin D (calcitriol) replacement along with monitoring for a long period after iron infusion-induced hypophosphatemia.
- Every incident should be reported to the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) so that the true prevalence and management thereof can be ascertained.
